Linking images to a placemark

[cta]

I am new to Google Earth.I have created and saved a Placemark successfully. I am trying to link the placemark to an image saved on my hard drive so that when I click on the placemark on the viewer the image pops up. I have used HTML code as follows:

<IMG SRC="image.gif">

However when I click on the placemark the image frame is empty.
Can anyone please help with this.

Keep the image frame up and give it a second to load

You do realise that the image has to be online to access it like that? If you dont have a server try using something like Imageshack

Thanks araT. How do you access an image that is on your hard drive? Is there a way or does the image have to be online?

Thanks again!

Hi,

first - it would be easier to help you if you post an example here.
2nd - the URL must be correct: test it with your Browser
